ACMA wants emergency services to be able to locate mobile callers

摘要

Fifty two percent of Australians think their location can be pinpointed when they call emergency services from their mobile phone. They're wrong, but the ACMA aims to change that, to some extent.rnThe ACMA is planning to make it a requirement of mobile network operators that they provide, on request from emergency services, "all location information available" about the caller. In the short term, however, this is likely to be of very limited help to anyone in dire straits.
